Orders
Open “Enter Order” window from the “Orders” Menu.
(A) “Enter Order” Window
This window is used for sending orders. The “Enter Order” can either be manually entered or
selected by clicking at a prevailing market price or quantity in the “Price Information” window (the
Price and Quantity field will also be automatically filled in with the prevailing market price and
quantity at the time of clicking). Options on different “Conditional orders” are available to choose
from, including: “Normal”, “Enhanced Stop”, “OCO” and “Bull & Bear”.
(i) Normal
“Limit” order to buy or sell
Page 10 of 26
(ii) Enhanced Stop
It simplifies the “Stop Limit” function, and users just need to adjust the “trigger price” plus
the “tolers” while buy or sell. The system would send a “Limit Order” to market when the market
price reaches the “trigger” level.
For example: Assume user has a short position and the current market price is 1395.0. User can
place an “Enhanced Stop” order with “trigger” level 1400.0 and 1.0 “Toler”. Thus, the user can
liquidate the short position at 1401.0 or better when the market reaches 1400.0.
☆ Toler
Sometimes it may not be able to perform “stop loss” even when a stop price is set, since the
market price fluctuates swiftly. With a view to that, toler can be set to guarantee the success
in stop loss.
☆ Trailing Stop
“Stop Limit” Order can be entered simply. Users just input the buy or sell, trigger price
and toler. And the ‘Trailing Stop’ is an advanced feature, which allows user to change the
“Stop Loss” value dynamically as the price changes, thus enabling user to minimize user’s
potential loss or let profit run.
Page 11 of 26
(iii) OCO
This is an order that consists of both a “Stop-Loss” and a “Limit” order. Once one of the pair is
filled, the other is canceled automatically. Once user’s target “Limit Price” is filled, the “stoploss” is canceled automatically.
For example: Assume user has a short position and the current market price is also 1395.0. User
can place an “OCO” order with “limit price” 1390.0, “trigger” level 1400.0 and 1.0 “toler”.
Thus, the user can liquidate the short position at 1390.0 and have 5.0 profits if the market
reaches 1390.0. By the way, the user also can “stop loss” at 1401.0 or better if the market
reaches 1400.0. Once one of the pair is filled, the other is canceled automatically.
(iv) Bull & Bear
Two options can be selected – “Bull” or “Bear”. The principle is to hold a long or short position
first using the “limit price”, or the “market price + Toler”. Then it will automatically perform
“Stop gain” or “Stop loss” when the price rises up or down by the “Profit” or “Loss +
Loss Toler” set. This function is suitable for users prefer short-term trading.
Page 12 of 26
For example: Assume user currently has no positions. User can place a “Bull & Bear” order
with “limit” buy price at 1395.0 and “up trigger” price at 1398, “stop loss” trigger price at
1394.0 and 0.5 “toler”. After the “limit order” filled at 1395.0, the user can have 3.0 profit if
market reaches 1398.0. On the other hand, the user can stop loss at 1393.5 or better if the
market reaches 1394.0.
(v) Change or Delete Order
User can delete order, change order from Order Book. This window is dynamically updated
upon changes of the orders. For example: When an order is fully traded, the order will
disappear from uppers portion and move to lower portion.
